Pre-Orientation

Leading Wash. U. Style

Jump start your college experience! Participate in the Leading Wash. U. Style Pre-Orientation program put on by Student Union, Washington University's undergraduate student government.  Together with current Student Union leaders, you will have the opportunity to hone your leadership skills and learn about different ways to get involved on campus and in St. Louis.

This isn't your typical leadership training. The Leading Wash. U. Style Pre-Orientation program is a full immersion experience into the Wash. U. community. We'll explore the campus and the city, and you'll have a chance to meet your peers, upper class students, and campus administrators in a relaxed and fun, yet extremely energetic and exciting, atmosphere.

Student Union represents the student voice on campus, but it's more than a student government. The organization is not only for students interested in government or advocacy. SU does programming and spearheads initiatives to improve campus life. Also, the students allocate a total budget of more than $2.2 million per year. For more information on Student Union, check out the website at su.wustl.edu or contact us at programming@su.wustl.edu.
